The winning player in a game advances. The losing player in a game plays a consolation round. One round is best four of seven games (starting in North America, and continuing through the maps in the order mentioned above). The finals has 7 games (one in each continent) regardless, and the player with the most games won wins. A consolation round is best two of three games (starting in Antarctica and going to Oceania, and Far East would be the tie breaker).
